Nail changes from immunotherapy can be managed without stopping cancer treatment.
research Telomere Dynamics and Telomerase in the Biology of Hair Follicles and their Stem Cells as a Model for Aging Research
Hair follicle studies suggest that maintaining telomere length could help treat hair loss and graying, but it's uncertain if mouse results apply to humans.
research Current Concepts and Translational Uses of Platelet Rich Plasma Biotechnology
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) shows promise for tissue repair and immune response, but more research is needed to fully understand it and optimize its use.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research The developing immune network in human prenatal skin
Human prenatal skin develops an immune network early on that helps with skin formation and healing without scarring.
research Human platelet lysate versus minoxidil stimulates hair growth by activating anagen promoting signaling pathways
Both human platelet lysate and minoxidil can promote hair growth, but they affect different genes and cell survival rates.
